GMMore 2286: Which Company Makes This Snack?

Welcome to Good Mythical Moore. We have cleaned out our pantry to determine if there’s one company behind all of this. Apparently there could be four, Three plus. Companies plus that, that own everything. And [Stevie You had the triscuits out for the tease shot. You hid the triscuits. Yeah. I was like, if they see that they’re never gonna come over to Good Mythical Moore. Wow. But you’re here now. Ha, gotcha! You’re, you’re stuck with some triscuit content. Tate. But first let’s play What’s the word, we’re gonna guess the definition of “mammonism”. Mamon-ism. Mammonism, mammonism. Mammon is the word for- That’s mammo, like breasts. Mammogram. Breasts? Mammo. Mammanism. Mammonism is when you make up, boob a loob a loolus is a mammonism. It’s when you make up a word referencing the mammaries. I like that. But I believe it’s actually like a soliloquy about boobs. Even better. If you just talk at length very eloquently about boobs. It’s a booby poem. Yeah. A breast poem. A boob coup, they might call it sometimes is like a haiku about boobs. And if all the words kind of come together, A hai-boob. A hai-boob. And if it’s hard to say, then it’s a titty twister. Ahh, yeah. How does a haiku go? What’s the, what’s the cadence? Five, eight, five? Five, three, 27…one. Five, seven, five? Boobs, they are so great, boobs. better not wait, until it’s too late. You’re out. Did I go too far? Shoot, I shouldn’t have said boobs again. Boobs, they are so great, better not wait, until it’s too late. They don’t have to rhyme, dude. They shouldn’t. Well, mine does. Tell that to the writers and our titles. What does it actually mean? The greedy pursuit of riches. The greedy pursuit of riches. That’s what I was gonna say, mammon means money. That’s exactly what I was about to say. And then you said boob. ‘Cause you said boobs, and then all I could think about was boobs. Yep, I got ya. I got ya. I was literally about to say mammon. You got me with triscuit content. I got you with boobs. All right. So we have General Mills over here. We have Mondelez International, we have PepsiCo And then we have, if it’s an independent brand. And so we have all of this stuff. Oh my goodness. What are we gonna do? Well, we have a number of things that are from the same brand, like Nabisco. I saw Nabisco over here somewhere. Maybe. Maybe I didn’t. Maybe I’ll pull these out and we can – Maybe I was looking at this one. Maybe I didn’t. Who owns Nabisco? Honey Maid is Nabisco. So let’s put, So yeah, there we go. Those are gonna be together. And then Bel Vita Breakfast bar. That feels independent. Oh, it feels independent? Doesn’t that feel independent? It does feel independent. Yeah. Let’s go, let’s put everything that feels independent over here. Fruit Roll-ups have tongue tattoos now? They got everything. This was my favorite thing to find in my lunch growing up. And what I would do, is I would take the whole Fruit Roll-up and I’d make it into a ball and I’d put it in my mouth and I would just like- That doesn’t feel like a very Link thing to do. And I would suck on it for a really long time. Like a, like a jawbreaker. It feels like a complete departure from what the intention of the thing is. I don’t think that these, do you think these are made by the same company? Gushers and Fruit Roll-ups. Gushers were also my favorite. Gushers. The flavors in both of these are just so good. It makes my mouth water. I’m, I’m putting Annie’s as a independent brand. Yep. That feels right. So then that feels like it just hasn’t really gotten its branding down beyond, ya know. Do we think Nabisco is General Mills, or Pepsi? Now they’ve, they’ve covered up anywhere on the back so you can’t cheat. Nabisco feels like something that Pepsi would buy. So does General. I mean, Nabisco has been around a long time. I feel like it was General Mills. Well, I don’t really have a reason other than just a feeling. All right, so we’re gonna go with Pepsi. Triscuit… You know what, I think that Lays, I think Pepsi owns Lays. That seems right to me. So let’s go ahead and put General Mills over here. What do we, I think Chips Ahoy is- Nabisco’s gotta be, we gotta put all the Nabisco together. Yep. That’s Nabisco right there. Chips, of Chips of the Hoy. Chex Mix. There’s no, there’s no like company. Mondelez. I have a little piece of information because I read the Wiki on Milka I know that is Milka is Mondelez… But Mondelez used to be. I think it’s Mondelez by the way. You’re just giving it like a nice, nice North Carolinian. No, but look, there’s a line over the “E” Stevie. See that? Does that mean? Back here we think it’s Mondelez. So why would it have a line? That’s a long “E” sound. That’s an “E” Sound. Mandel-eez Chase said “ehhhh” Mondel-ehz. Mondelez eh is a, It said something about Nabisco. It is “-lees.” We’ll talk about this later guys. Well where do you, I don’t think Fruit Roll-ups and Gushers are made by the same people. What it feels like, maybe they use the same sticky stuff. Like same factory? If you can make a Gusher you can make a Fruit Roll-up and vice versa. Which would you choose though, if you had ’em both sitting out there like the little pack? That’s, that’s a tough choice, isn’t it? Man, ’cause I was, I was gonna say Gusher because you get the extra gush, but then you think about those tongue tattoos you can get these days with the Fruit Roll-ups. I wonder… And I think about how much fun I could have just tattooing my tongue all afternoon. Hmm? It’s really fun to eat a Fruit Roll-up. Well let’s, hey, we can do it, right now. I feel sick from the milka dude. I know, but what if we just gave ourselves what if we gave ourselves tongue tattoos but didn’t eat the Fruit Roll-up? Like I would want Pepto Bismol Fruit Roll-up. That’s what I really need right now. Okay. Which is certainly something we could create. We did a kids snacks for adults. We could do a round two. Just an idea. Just ’cause I need it. I feel like Chex Mix is, it feels Pepsi-ish to me. I feel like Gushers are Pepsi and I feel like Fruit Roll-ups are General Mills. Right? So we’ve got Bugles, which are I think Bugles are, seem like, Oh, that’s Pepsi, man. You think with Lays? Yeah. Don’t you think so? So we’re not putting anything on Mondalez. Off the Eatin’ Path, snacks for the Curious. That’s independent. I think that Miss Vicky was bought by Lays, and I think Bugles were not. I think Bugles just smacks, as like a, as a long, it could be Mondelez. It’s America’s number one what? Bugle shaped snack. America’s number one finger hat. America’s number one finger hat. I mean if that wasn’t written on the package and I said that you would’ve laughed. Yeah. It would’ve been a good joke. Do you have like, okay so you keep saying, “I’m feeling”, but do you have, like how would you describe each of these parent companies, vibe-wise? Like, General Mills, General Mills I think of, grains, I think of cereals, And then for PepsiCo, Rhett told me Lays was on. Now I’m on that train. I think Pepsi is like something you can get in a machine. Like something, you can press a button and it drops into your, into something. Okay. That’s why I don’t know how I feel about Gushers being in there because I don’t know if a Gusher can drop out of a machine. Well we can, alright. And I think that because you you know, you said, you know, that Lays is PepsiCo. I don’t know. Well dude, I’m hinging my whole thing on this. I just feel strongly about it. That like Sun Chips and was, I think that, Lays gobbled up all the other chip brands. And so like Sun Chips, Miss Vicky. Yep, smart. And, and what else do we have? Of course we have Baked Lays. That’s Pepsi all the way. Which is Pepsi. All, this all could drop right out of a box. And then, oh yes, we got a little Pepto. Let me get going with this. Do I chew these or not? It’s always- You read the directions and if you open it up and they’re, and they’re pink you chew them. Peel back for drug facts. Okay. Don’t take pills or powders. Doesn’t say that. Like that’s a good drug advice. But let me just, I’m gonna show you. Like no pills or powders, kids. There’s been at least 12 times in my life when Link has opened a bottle and asked me, “Do I chew these or do I swallow these?” And I can tell immediately, you, you do not chew these. Do I take two? ‘Cause look at it. It’s, it shaped like a, it’s shaped like, a you probably could. It would probably, no, no big deal. But like, if they want you to chew it, they put it make it a little disc. A little disc. You know what I’m saying? Uh-huh, uh-huh. So let’s say you’re at home Link and- And you’re still watching. We should keep going. No, no, no. I’m talking about you. Like, I just felt like Rhett had to kind of like, how does like taking, taking a pill go at your house? Is it, is Christy, does Christy? I call him. What? He calls me. I call him. Okay. No, I asked Christy, He text me a picture of the pill’s like, do I chew or swallow this? And I actually, I just, I The reason why, why- I just, I, I reply with just a “C” or an “S’, because it happens so often. “C” “S” The reason why I wanted to have children is so when Christy’s not around and Rhett’s not around I have other people to ask how to how to do things, like take medications. Like I’m getting ready, I’m getting ready for my older years. Like every, like, I have so many medication questions. Okay. You know how when you get a prescription filled and then the pharmacist is like, “Do you have any questions about this?” I’m like, you don’t, you don’t want to ask me that. Do I chew it or swallow it? Do I chew it or swallow? Is my main question. They’ll be like, “Uhhh”. It’s an enema. Yeah. Uh, Grandma’s chocolate chip cookie looks like an independent thing. But I feel like this might be Pepsi, because it can come out of a machine. Bingo. I love how without question you- So this right here original recipe, like Gardetto’s, this is, this is not- What is that? This is a, this is like a nightmare. What have we given to Mondelez? Nothing. Nothing. I don’t think they get anything. I think they have that. You’re giving them Gardetto’s? I think they have a bunch of international feeling things like Tate doesn’t feel international. I feel like this is General Mills and… I think Tates might be independent. So the only thing we’ve given Mondelez is that. And then, oh, Triscuit. Triscuit feels. Do you wanna- It’s pretty grainy, General Mills. And do you wanna move the Gusher’s somewhere before we lock it in? And Stevie, how are you gonna reveal this? Good God. I’m gonna go through each thing. It’s really interesting ’cause I was like trying to see if there was any kind of pattern. And I, I think Rhetts’ method is super interesting. Not everything you put there belongs there, but it did help you out a lot, so. Okay. We’ll start with, well, where do you wanna start? Which one do you wanna start with? Let’s go with independent brands. There are no independent brand snacks on that table. Everything’s been gobbled up. And, and I’m really sad about the, I don’t know if I’m sad. I’m, the Annie’s seemed like, Annie’s, you’re just stand you’re standing alone and you’re standing for good. But no, no. Annie’s is own by someone. It gets, it gets irresistible at some point. No, I’m gonna say that this is General Mills. Yeah. Yeah. Let’s put these where we think. Is it General Mills? Off the Beaten Path, Mondelez. Well, before I reveal what everything is, I wanna talk about mythical.com. Oh yeah. We got, we’re just getting crazy. A Black Friday, cyber Monday. We’re just doing things we shouldn’t even do, giving so many discounts. 20% off everything at mythical.com. 40% off our psych apparel at mythical.com.

And for the discounts on merch, mythical.com Bel Veta, General Mills. I mean, it’s so grainy. It says 18 grams of delicious whole grains. Nothing is independent. Nothing’s independent. Okay. Okay. PepsiCo, so this, so Lays you are correct. Okay good. Lays, and then your assumption about Sun Chips was also correct. Your assumption about Miss Vicky was also correct Yes! Yes, so now we’re just left with, we’re left with Grandma’s chocolate chip. And your Grandma’s thing is also correct with the vending machine. Machine. They love vending machines. What about Gushers? The one thing, that Gusher’s are not PepsiCo. The one thing that’s not in the pile that should be is Off the Eaten Path Veggie Crisps. But you did really freaking well. Veggie crisps? I guess you could put this into a machine. Well it’s a, it’s a bag, so. Alright, I’ll put the Gushers over here with Fruit Roll-ups, that’s what I was thinking all along. So the only thing we haven’t, okay, we need to reassess. We put so much in General Mills. It’s general. It is general. And they got mills. They mill a bunch of stuff. The only thing Mondelez is this, this is right, standing by it. Which is incorrect. Then nothing is there. It’s incorrect. How many things are are in Mondelez? Six. Six! Okay. Tates cookies. Oh, and I also didn’t say, Chex Mix- Just tell us what they are. No, no, no. PepsiCo, Chex Mix was hiding I think. Yeah. Were we right about that? No, you were not right about that. Oh. Put General Mills cuz it’s cereal. All right. Put the following things in Mondelez, Tates, both of the Fruit roll-ups and Gushers. She said this wasn’t correct. What? Fruit Roll-ups and gushers. Because it’s candy, yep. We know they do candy like no other. Bugles. Uhhh… There had to be six things, man. I agree with that. And then maybe Chips Ahoy? What’s that? Annie’s, Annie’s did a deal with Mondelez. No, uh-uh no, nope. I’m not moving. I could see Annie doing that though. I’m not moving it. But, this stuff right here. This Bel Vita. I don’t know about this. Okay. One, two, three, four, five, six. Right there. Bel Vita’s correct. Yes. And Tates is correct. Okay. And? The others are Chips Ahoy Oh, oh yeah. We should have done Chips Ahoy. They love cookies there. What and what else? Ritz crackers. Ahhhh. Ritz crackers? Where are they? In the back. We forgot about ’em. You’re literally touching it. Oh that. Yeah. Ritz Crackers are Mondelez? [Stevie Triscuits. Triscuits!? And, Honey Maid graham crackers. We have really heard. I think our, we underestimated Mondelez. Let me say something. My call to put Gushers and Fruit Roll-ups at General Mills was was right. I know my fruity candy. So both of these, I like the fact that these are made by the, they are owned by the same company. Yeah. Yeah. Like I like the fact they’re like, they’re cousins. They’re not competitors. They show up at the same family reunion. Right. They just kind of sit in the corner and get sticky together. Bless you. And then, Chex Mix. The Annie’s was bought by General Mills. Bugles, and whatever, whatever this crap is. What are you talking about? You don’t like Gardetto’s? Never heard of it. Come on. Hold on, let me see it. I don’t think I would’ve been able to tell you what they are, but it’s, it those little like tangy pretzel things, bite things. What is it? Oh, my gosh I didn’t realize that it was- Oh yeah, that’s right. Has the, it’s like super garlicy and it’s got brown chips Its got the best thing from Chex Mix in it and a lot more of ’em. What? Oh that’s good. Gardetto’s I don’t like anything else in it, though. How have you both been shielded from Gardetto’s? We weren’t allowed to have anything Italian. I wasn’t allowed to know about bagels until I graduated from college.
